The safety foundation which urges the idea is financed by insurance companies. They would like to lower rates but they cannot do it as long as Americans drive like ill-bred maniacs. They evidently feel that good manners are good business. They are. On the road as well as anywhere else. citie | SLA APO WHO RRS SELL SASS RS Farmers Prefer Their Friends peed dloy Of interest to farmers is the effort to transfer the biolog- | and ‘organized {cal survey, the forest service and other agencies in the depart- ment of agriculture to the interior department. Rural America wants no such shake-up. The record of the interior department is too bad. Secretary Ickes is an honest man but the interior department has harbored most of the cabinet officers who have ever gotten into real trouble. That has been due to easy money from Indian lands, Indian oil rights | ke? and oil reserves. . Ickes seems to have done better, but the tradition is bad: Farmers will like it better if agencies which dgal with them are managed by men with a f: ’s outlook. 5 Chief sponsors of the change are members of d committee SAAT CET AL a oe ow. on government reorganization‘appointed by the president. igher w are cun pods : : _ Leading opponent is Prof. H.

The chances are if he wants | ¥orkers to keep these activities in the department of agriculture he will doso. He has a way of getting what he wants. What of the Third Partner? ; Everyone favors a partnership of capital and labor to make | for ke ice levels ( aa a better and more prosperous America. Today’s Contract Pro! _____ But it cannot be said too often that there is a third impor-|weat ‘vn: crt "| |, Me contract ts four spades tant partner in such deals. ‘That partner is the public, i Tf, as seems .to be the case in at.least some instances, the public interest. is ignored, both capital and labor will regret their oversight. For when anyone steps on the toes of John Q. Public he does something about it. And what he does isn’t always pretty. i Everyone wants harmony but not at the expense of thi public interest. Labor leaders and capitalists would do well to note that fact lest they destroy the very thing such partner- | ships seek to obtain. 4 Commenting on the situation in labor-controlled Seattle, # national observer recently said that what labor wants to do is to marry capital and settle down, entering into arrangements whereby they will join peacefully in milking the public. It would be a fine thing for them but bad for the people asa whole. The time may be coming soon when the public will have to issue strong notice to that effect. i 11 Hours of Talk , at Many men have wondered what the referee says to the principals in a boxing match when they gather in the center of , _ -the ring before hostilities-start. a It would be even more interesting to know what employer- | Isbor negotiators find to say to each other during an 11-hour conference such as that held recently. between Walter P. Chrys- ler and John Lewis. Of course others were present and probably had something to say, but allotting them a total of three hours it would still Teave four hours each for the principal negotiators. Granting that they have to examine a lot of factual information, that much time would use up a lot of words. But more important than what was said is the ultimate result, which seems now to favor a peaceful settlement. If this can be reached and a stop put to the epidemic of strikes which is disturbing the nation everyone will applaud.
